About me
I am licensed in Florida with 3 years of professional counseling work experience. Before my counseling career, I was a middle school special education teacher for 10 years. I have experience in trauma, bullying, depression, neurodevelopmental disorders (ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, and intellectual disorders) including executive functioning deficits or difficulties, behavioral disorders (i.e., oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder, reactive attachment disorder), mood disorders, and anxiety disorders. I strongly believe building therapeutic relationships with adolescents and teens is key to producing successful outcomes. My focus is helping teens build skills and internal resources to effectively handle life's inevitable challenges. I utilize practices and protocols within the following therapeutic models: Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Brief Solution-Focused Therapy. I treat every client with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet their unique and specific needs and closely monitor their progress making changes when necessary.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Natalie Rzeznik. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Natalie R has been amazing with our 16 yo daughter. They have a great connection and it’s so nice that they can chat by video, messages, etc ! It’s a huge help because we are very rural where we live. We farm and the closest city with a therapist you can see regular is an hour and a half there are towns within an hour that have basic or emergency services for mental health. But not at the level we require help with and not on a regular schedule. Sometimes with different people so it’s hard to keep the info up to date when they don’t always get the same person. But here in Teen Counselling, the therapist (Natalie) has been amazing!
Natalie is very insightful, professional, respectful , and helpful. Always responds in a timely fashion and is always there when I need her.
Natalie has great energy. She is motivational. Wish I had received worksheets, book recommendations, exercises...essentially "homework" to do in between our sessions to further support my journey. Aside from that, I definitely recommend Natalie and am truly grateful for the safe space she created during our time together. Thank you Natalie!
She was awesome and gave us wonderful tools to work with, we are definitely a lot better off thanks to her advice. Would absolutely recommend her to others.
Natalie is tbe best therapist I’ve had. She is so kind and empathetic. She never makes me feel like my issues are too much or that she can’t help. I recommemd her to everyone and I’ve told about to many of my friends. I appreciate you dearly Natalie!
She has great tools to help out !!
She’s helping me through the most difficult time of my life
Natalie has provided an effective method for my husband and I to see each other’s perspective by initiating various activities to enhance communication and understanding.
Just absolutely amazing and very personable and funny. I feel very easy with her and find myself word vomiting. She listens and gives feedback after thinking on it and i appreciate that it makes me feel like ive been heard and shes trying to figure me out.
She's been awesome. Always look forward to talking
I've only started my journey to healing trauma. However, Natalie is highly responsive, caring and above all very supportive! She's very intuitive when navigating some complex emotions and has the knowledge and compassion to help. She provides a judgement free space and Im so lucky I was matched with her!!
Amazing support
Good listener, very helpful
Highly recommended to autistic individuals who are struggling with immense depression and suffering.
Very happy with how easy it is to navigate this process online.
Unfortunately I wasn’t able to actually have a live season with Natalie but not due to her/ or lack of. She seems to be a wonderful therapist. She did reach out always in a timely manner, doing check ins, and always going above and beyond to help. I look forward to trying this app and hopefully get Ms.Natalie again in the future.
100% recommend
She is an amazing therapist! She listens, understands and helps the best way she can!
She’s very good! I’ve never done therapy and she’s a big big help! I was planning on canceling after one session but because of her I’m staying.
Great!
Natalie has been incredible I never in my life thought it was possible for me to have a therapist or having me listen to my concerns let alone speak to somebody so vulnerably and she makes it so easy I am forever grateful for her and her expertise her friendliness she goes above and beyond
